hi iv just bought a safety devices rear cage.

i dont want to drill the wholes for it to fit in because i just dont like the look of massive holes everywhere. i want to weld it in instead.

iv seen a someones project thread on hear showing the best way to do it,but cant remember which one lol

cheers jack:thumb:

My signature, check out the links for a start.

Look in the project section just about every thread in there has some form of rollcage related welding lol

sell it & get some sink waste pipe from b&q & make one from that...... because it will be about as much use as welding in a bolt on one........

Why will it?? /\

Just weld some spreader plates to the shell, and weld the cage feet to the spreader plates.

Here you are, this is how mine was done: http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showpost.php?p=904726&postcount=154

Essentially what people have said above. Weld in the spreader plates then weld the feet to the plates.
